Adobe > File > Save as HTML....?

    I might be going mad but last week I could have sworn I was using either Flash, Photoshop or Illustrator and I managed to export a design as a HTML file.

    The code was far from neat but a feature like this would come in really handy for when I'm designing newsletters.

    I have the CS3 suite of apps. Is it possible to export as HTML or am I going mad?

    I don't think you quite understood, or maybe I missed your post, but when I exported I could have sworn it exported HTML with inline CSS.

    ImageReady was removed for the CS3 suite of Adobe Products, and since this deals with generated HTML and inlined-CSS, I'm willing to bet that the offending party was Photoshop.

    Either way I wouldn't trust the "feature" with a 50 meter pole, since you'll have to go back, remove all the CSS, apply classes and IDs where appropriate, put the CSS in an external stylesheet, using descendent selectors when possible...

    It's just not worth it.

    In Photoshop CS2 you go to "Save for web", then click Save and under "Save as type" select HTML and Images.

    And as I've said before, it's just not worth doing it that way.

    before i learn css i use "save as website" to do same raw template for my website.
    it's simple and help me to display table design of my website.

    but now i use "save as website" just for save my image so i can control the size and put it manualy in dreamweaver and use css for layout design.

    depends what your doing it for. As the thread starter said he is doing it for newsletters, which would be ideal. Fair enough it's not valid or even good code that comes out, but it works and thats all that he needs.

    Wow, I didn't even know Photoshop can save them as web files. Something to experiment with.
    Kind Regards.
